Zebra® Rapixo CXP Data Sheet: A new generation of frame grabbers, supporting version 2.0 of the CoaXPress® digital interface standard for machine vision applications. The Zebra Rapixo CXP series supports data rates of either up to 6.25 Gbps (CXP-6) or up to 12.5 Gbps (CXP-12) per connection. The PCIe® host interface comfortably matches the maximum input bandwidth from the CoaXPress links. The CoaXPress links are accessed through high-density BNC connectors allowing for a homogenous interconnection with new cameras. Power-over-CoaXPress (PoCXP) support on each connection simplifies system configurations, combining the camera’s power interface with its command- and data-interface onto the same coaxial cable. The Zebra Rapixo CXP series of frame grabbers feature one, two, or four connections for interfacing to independent cameras. Zebra Rapixo CXP Dual and Quad models can also handle higher data rates through connection aggregation. The Zebra Rapixo CXP series possesses sufficient onboard memory to buffer incoming image data in situations where the host computer is temporarily unable to accept data. The fanless design for select models ensures extended use without maintenance. FPGA-based image processing offload The Zebra Rapixo CXP Pro makes use of an FPGA device from the Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale™ family for not only integrating the controlling, formatting, and streaming logic of the various interfaces, but also allowing developers to incorporate Aurora Imaging- or user-developed custom image pre-processing operations to offload from the host computer. A variety of FPGA sizes are available for the Zebra Rapixo CXP Pro, providing a range of solutions tailored to a given application. Operations performed on-board are controlled through Aurora Imaging Library, formerly Matrox Imaging Library (MIL), application-development software. Within Aurora Imaging Library, an existing FPGA configuration can be rearranged to perform a required sequence of operations without necessarily having to generate a new FPGA configuration. Using the Aurora FDK, developers generate their own FPGA configurations with custom operations written in C/C++. Data forwarding for distributed processing The Zebra Rapixo CXP series also offers the possibility of distributing image processing across multiple computers using the data forwarding option. This feature enables the relaying of images to another computer using four output connections running at either up to 6.25 Gbps (CXP-6) or up to 12.5 Gbps (CXP-12). The data forwarding is accomplished without host computer involvement as image data is re-transmitted prior to also being stored in onboard memory, thus minimizing latency. Images can be retransmitted to multiple computers in a daisy chain fashion by equipping each PC with a Zebra Rapixo CXP board with data forwarding option
Rapixo CXP quad CXP-6 PCIe 2.1 x8 frame grabber with 4GB and passive heatsink. Includes one (1) mDP-to-HD15 GPIO cable adaptor. Note: Cable adaptors for second, third, and fourth GPIOs sold separately.
